System Down

Well, the system stopped reporting and replying on July 24th, for no apparent reason. I had it set to twitter periodically, and the last tweet was around 1:38 AM on July 24th. It did not respond to subsequent attempts to send text messages. From the AT&T account history page I see these text messages were actually delivered to the modem, but not reply was received. Since they were delivered, I assume power is on. Likely a computer crash, or application crash.

I now need to have someone local look at the system, which is problematic since I start it up using a sequence of complicated steps. Must design a one-button (or no-button) start, so the system can be simply rebooted and the application started simply.
